According to the characterization by powder X-ray diffraction(PXRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), N2 adsorption isotherms and pyridine adsorptioninfrared (IR) techniques, the synthetic silicoaluminum pillared clays possess regular porosity withhigh thermal stability up to 750 ℃ and Br?nsted /Lewis acidity.展开更多

More stringent environmental regulations have been implemented in order to reduce the VOC emissions. One of the techniques available for destructive removal of VOCs is catalytic oxidation. In the present work, Al/Rare Earths （REE： Y, Ce, La, Pr and Nd） pillared clays （PILCs） were used to support 0.2 wt.% of palladium for the complete oxidation of low concentration of benzene. The supports and catalysts were characterized by XRD, N2 adsorp- tiorddesorption, FTIR spectroscopy, HRTEM and H2-TPR techniques. The results indicated that after Al and Al/REE pillaring, the basal spacing, SBET, Amic and Vmic of Al and AIREE-PILC had a considerable increase compared with those of Na-mmt. Activity tests of deep oxidation of benzene showed that the catalytic activity of Pd catalysts supported on Al and AIREE-PILC were much higher than that on initial clays, which was due to the fact that optimized structure of PILCs, such as large basal spacing, high SBET and porosity, improved Pd dispersion and increased the active sites of Pd. Especially for Pd/AICe-PILC, the temperature of complete oxidation was about 280 ℃, exhibiting the highest catalytic activity.展开更多
